Post number 51. Going above and beyond. I know this saying is cliche, but it has so much value to it. People who go "above and beyond" tend to succeed. They just have something within them that pushes them. I wrote my first paper about this. It was basically about how through playing basketball my whole life, I became the person that I am and have a strong backbone because of it. I learned to go above and beyond and that it is necessary to do this if you want to stand out and be exceptional. Don't get me wrong, I definitely don't think that I am exceptional or anything, but I try to be. It is my goal and I strive towards it in everything that I do.

Well, this entry completes my required number of blog entries. I guess I'll probably do a few more though so I don't look like I hit the requirement and stopped. This blogging has been interesting. I'm not the type to blog. I don't even have twitter so this whole thing has been kind of painful. I guess it's been good for me though. I can't say that I will continue to blog after this class, at least I don't think I will. You never know though. 

War damn rodeo. Oh my gosh rodeo was so much fun! If y'all didn't go, you definitely need to go next year! It was the most fun I've had in a long time! My sister came in town and I got to show her off and introduce her to all my friends. I think she had a great time and I know I did! Definitely made some good memories this weekend!

I'm so ready for this week to end and for the weekend to be here! I have one test left and it's tomorrow at 8am. For some reason I can't make myself study for it but I neeeeed to! I've got a lot going on tonight and don't want to have to stay up late studying. Friday afternoon couldn't come any sooner!

My group and I's project is coming a long pretty well. We've gotten a lot done and plan on really writing the paper next wednesday. We are mostly still doing research and finding sources that we want to use. We are being careful not to focus too much on just remediation since someone else has that chapter and we have the chapter "remediating remediation." Our main argument is that remediation programs do indeed need to be remediated at the university level.

I really want to knock out this homework before the weekend! I posted my group's questions, but I'm waiting on the other groups to post theirs so that I can do my comments! If y'all see this, please upload your questions! I'm glad that we don't have class tomorrow, but I wish I could skip my lab at 11 so I could leave to go home super early! Oh well.

Class was fun today! I enjoyed working with my group. I usually sit and watch the time click by in class, but it was over before I knew it today! I feel like my group is going to be very good and work really well together. We are all determined to do well on this unit and to work efficiently. This seems very possible with our awesome group!
